Did they tell you why the last one moved? If because of fibroids then may be this one misplaced too.
If it is not fibroid then may be it is just the new mirena settling in. Take some pain killers for the pain and may be a hot bottle.
If mirena moves then bleeding is heavy however if the bleeding is light, normal or regular spotting then it is just the new device settling and it can take upto 6 months to fully settle.

Thanks for your response. They did say I had a small fibroid and had said coil had appeared as if moved i had it in for over 3 years . No bleeding is like a light period but just been so long it’s not very heavy .
I’m scared it becomes a major issue can’t go to doctors as I’m in the extremely vulnerable category and can’t leave home at all .
As long as it’s nothing sinister ......
Thanks again for taking time out to reply xxxxxx Smile
